The year 2012 has been a kitty of surprises in the technology front. 2012 has
seen the demand for iPad, smartphones and tablets soaring high like never
before. Some of the trends that shaped the industry in 2012 include:
Enterprise Mobility
Mobility management has been a key talking point in IT industry, posing major challenge to many of the companies with the proliferation of devices, application and the trends that are coming up. Owing to the smartphone and tablet revolution the workforce is becoming more mobile than ever before and companies are warming up to the idea of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD). Device Management (MDM) and Mobile Application Management (MAM) solutions are fast maturing and will allow for secure provisioning and monitoring (among other things) of mobile devices and applications. While issues related to BYOD remain and are being resolved, enterprises will allow “limited” (type of devices and applications) mobile access to their employees.
Analytics
With the rising competition and demanding customers, Analytics has become crucial not only to understand customers but to take important business decisions based on facts & data. With the organizations generating huge amount of transactional data, understanding, assessing and converting structured and unstructured data into meaningful insights is the need of the day.
Cloud Computing
Cloud remains one of the key trends as it not only saves the IT teams from investing heavily on infrastructure, but also shields them from the intricacies involved in infrastructure setup and management. Cloud based flexible and on-demand infrastructure enables a enterprise to offer mobility and social media channels without incurring any fixed cost. Using a cloud infrastructure, an enterprise can start in a small way and grow into these evolving markets with a lower risk and financial strain. And, more importantly, it enables them to keep their technology constantly up-to-date as they won’t be burdened by the impact of capital investments
The increasing need for mobile communication devices will change the face of 2013. The New Year will see a lot of changes including:
Enterprise social collaboration technology for enabling real-time information exchange and performance management: This is now an inevitable process for today’s organizations. As social media tools like social networks, office networks and blogs have proven to enhance the success rate of businesses, enterprise social collaboration, is shaping into a communication model to augment team work and partnership among co-workers resulting in not only client happiness but also satisfaction.
Cloud: The horizon looks clear and positive for cloud in 2013. With the ability to amend how applications are built, deployed and accessed through public, private and hybrid clouds, it is entering a new face of global acceptance. More and more companies are switching to cloud due to its price efficiency and ease of use. With technologies like ERP and CRM moved to the cloud, companies can lavish their focus on high value activities.
Advanced Big Data analysis: The advancement in big data analysis will assist managers to be more decisive to derive better business insights. The predict for businesses in 2013 looks promising with big data sharpening business intelligence to increase productivity. Going by Gartner’s forecast, big data is set to drive USD 34 billion of IT spending in 2013. Analyzing the amount of data produced by organizations around the world clearly exposes a huge opportunity for big data to thrive. According to an IDC survey in association with EMC, the world is generating data at the rate of 5 exabytes every two days.
